📍 Geographic Location of Dubasari
Geographic Overview
The area code 215 is a geographic National Destination Code (NDC) assigned to the city of Dubasari and its surrounding administrative district in the Republic of Moldova. Dubasari is located on the eastern border of Moldova, along the Dniester River, and is part of the Transnistrian region, though the prefix operates under the Moldovan national numbering plan. The code serves fixed-line PSTN subscribers within the Dubasari area, including the city center and nearby rural localities.
Dialing Formats
When calling a Dubasari fixed-line number from within Moldova, subscribers must dial the national trunk prefix 0, followed by the area code and the subscriber's 5-digit local number. The complete national format is:
- 0 215 XX XX XX (example: 0 215 12 34 56)
For international callers, the Moldovan country code +373 is used, and the leading trunk prefix '0' is omitted. The international format is:
- +373 215 XX XX XX (example: +373 215 12 34 56)
Note that the total number of digits after the country code is 8 (including the area code), consistent with the national numbering plan.
Administrative and Jurisdictional Context
Dubasari is officially recognized by the Moldovan government as part of the administrative unit of Dubasari District. However, the city is under the de facto control of the unrecognized Transnistrian authorities. Despite this, the 215 code is allocated by the National Regulatory Agency for Electronic Communications and Postal Regulation (ANRCETI) of Moldova, and calls to this code are routed through the Moldovan PSTN infrastructure. Subscribers in the area may have access to both Moldovan and Transnistrian networks, but the 215 code is specifically associated with the Moldovan numbering plan.
Caller Instructions
For local callers within Moldova: Dial the national trunk prefix '0' followed by '215' and the local number. For example, to call a Dubasari number 12 34 56 from Chisinau, dial 0 215 12 34 56.
For international callers: Dial your country's international access code (e.g., 00 from most European countries, 011 from North America), then Moldova's country code 373, then the area code 215 without the leading '0', and the local number. For example, from the United States, dial 011 373 215 12 34 56.
Overlay and Numbering Considerations
As of the latest ANRCETI updates, there are no overlay codes for the 215 area. The numbering capacity is sufficient for the current subscriber base. However, if you experience difficulties reaching a number, verify that the number is indeed a fixed-line service, as some numbers in the Dubasari area may have been ported to mobile networks, but the geographic prefix remains unchanged.
